APPLY HERE: https://burlingtonpublicart.com/calls-for-artists/ -- The City of Burlington invites First Nations, Inuit and Métis artists, groups and artist-led teams living in Halton Region (Burlington, Oakville, Milton, and Halton Hills) to submit an expression of interest to create a mural for the Mountainside Recreation Centre. The City is partnering with the Burlington Indigenous Talking Circle to create a gathering space at Mountainside Recreation Centre (2205 Mt Forest Dr.). This room will provide space for First Nations ceremonies and Indigenous activities, such as beading and skirt-making. The goal is to create dedicated space for local Indigenous arts and culture to flourish in Burlington, honouring the history and importance of the Indigenous community in Burlington. The mural will help to set the tone and intention of the space, and ignite reflection and conversation. It will help nurture connections between Indigenous and non-Indigenous communities, serving as a publicly accessible site available for hosting a variety of recreational and educational opportunities. Mural design proposals are not required at this time. The selected artist(s) will be given time to develop their artwork concept. This will include a site visit and collaboration with the Burlington Indigenous Talking Circle and City staff.
